Re: Guile OpenGL

[Aleix Conchillo Flaqué]

When installing libraries manually to /usr/local GUILE_LOAD_PATH and
GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH are your friends. There's no other way to do
it, AFAIK.

Also, guile-opengl should install .go files in site-ccache instead of
ccache. I think I sent a patch a while back with both your change and
the ccache->site-ccache, but not sure who maintains it now.
